She has developed a remarkable multi-award winning, continent-spanning career as a singer, songwriter, lyricist, and educator, while always remaining true to her roots.

The family home was in Samois-sur-Seine, the location of the Django Reinhardt Festival, one of the biggest annual gatherings of gypsy musicians in Europe. The teenage Cyrille would climb out of her bedroom window at night to mingle with the players, igniting a passion for jazz, and inspiring her with the idea of living within a global community of music, united in creativity and spontaneity, without limits or borders.

She spent her teen years performing in the cafes and clubs of Paris, then attended the American School of Modern Music there. She garnered her first taste of fame – or, perhaps more accurately, notoriety – when she was selected as one of 16 semi-finalists for Star Academy, the French equivalent of American Idol. When she realized how restrictive the show’s contract would be, however, she opted to walk away, igniting a scandal in the French media.

A spell in Santo Domingo was followed by a move to New York City, where she attended SUNY Purchase on scholarship by day, and moonlighted as a singer in the Manhattan jazz clubs by night. Her talents quickly gained her a reputation among her peers as a fearless, warm, witty improviser and a matchless interpreter of song.

She performed and recorded with Roy Hargrove, stealing the show in front of the notoriously hard-to-please crowd at the Harlem Apollo, and won a string of competitions culminating in winning the 2012 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition and becoming a finalist in the Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition.

The musical theatre icon invited her to star alongside the legendary Bernadette Peters in an Encores Special Presentation tribute at New York’s City Centre in November 2013, backed by Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Centre Orchestra, which was hailed by the New York Daily News as “a revelation.”

The album received praise from Sondheim himself, and the song “Marry Me A Little” was Nominated for a GRAMMY® Award. Starting in 2020, she reached out into the digital realm via a string of YouTube video collabs with the pianist and jazz influencer Emmet Cohen, and their version of ‘La Vie en Rose’ has been viewed more than 6 million times to date.

A growing interest in sharing her vision of the interaction of spontaneity and creativity, and the importance of community, led to her developing her ideas into a TEDx Talk about the laws of improvisation and how they apply to life. A visit to New Orleans resulted in her falling in love with the city and moving there in 2017.

Energized and unstoppable, in 2021 she bought a plot of land in the forests of Costa Rica, designed and built a house on it, and there in the calm of the forest started putting together material for a new project: songs drawn from her own life, encompassing every aspect of her journey so far.

It’s a set of songs that show a new side to Cyrille’s persona, one that encompasses her love of storytelling truth and musical freedom, drawing on all sides of her heritage. Combining the depth and sophistication of jazz, the immediacy of pop, the irrepressible dance rhythms of the Caribbean, it’s at once more intimate and more accessible than anything Cyrille has done before.
